Chapter 2059 Sewage Plant Makes Money

In mid-April, Yang Cheng flew to London, and Liverpool returned to the semi-finals of the Champions League. They will play against Juventus at home and away in early May. As long as they pass this hurdle, the Champions League trophy is close at hand.

At this time, as the team owner, it is natural to be closer to the team and sit in charge in person.

But the reason why he flew over half a month earlier was because of Ian Ayer's phone call.

This guy rushed to Beihai Manor early, waiting for Yang Cheng to come back, and immediately said, "Boss, I think you should give me a bonus~"

Yang Cheng still hadn't taken off her coat, "What's your situation? Are you short of money?"

"No, I made a great investment for you~"

Yang Cheng couldn't laugh or cry, great?

"Tell me, how great is it?"

Ian Ayre put a stack of reports on the table, "I guess you didn't pay attention to the two sewage treatment plants we acquired from Jenkins last year. I just got back their first quarter report. It's really amazing. To my big surprise, net income in the first quarter exceeded £200,000."

Yang Cheng couldn't bear to beat him, it only took him a few seconds to buy a Ferrari, how could he ask for a bonus for 200,000 pounds?

This Ian Air is going to float.

Seeing that Yang Cheng's eyes were wrong, Ian Ayer said quickly, "Boss, you forgot, our previous forecast, a sewage treatment plant's annual net profit of 500,000 pounds is the sky-high, and now it's 200,000 in the first quarter." GBP."

Yang Cheng threw the coat to the maid, picked up the account and glanced at it. Indeed, the profit in the first quarter exceeded 200,000 pounds, and the momentum remained good. If this continues, the annual net income may approach 1 million pounds. Don't worry. Forget that this is just one, but he bought two in one go, which is nearly 2 million?

What if there are 5 or 10? Yang Cheng took a deep breath, never expecting that the sewage plant, which was bought for the purpose of accumulating a good reputation, could bring such a high return.

"What's the situation? Why did you suddenly earn so much more?"

Ian El smiled, "Boss, this is also due to your status. Our sewage treatment plant has recently received inspection teams from country Z one after another."

"You mean, we can enter the country Z market? Can't we be so lucky?"

"It's not that easy,

But soon. "

Yang Cheng pressed her temples, "Wait, I still don't understand, is sewage treatment really so profitable? The profit almost exceeds that of the garbage treatment plant."

"Hey~boss, it turns out that you and I have underestimated this business."

After he sat down with Yang Cheng, he continued, "Several investigation teams from country Z mainly study sludge treatment. The people of country Z are so generous, they gave away a sponsorship fee of 50,000 pounds just for the inspection."

Yang Cheng smiled, "Let's talk about business, don't worry about money."

"This is money, boss. Sludge is solid waste produced in the sewage treatment process. It is produced in a huge amount and has complex components. If it is not handled properly, it will not only cause new pollution to the environment, but also waste useful resources in the sludge. Sludge treatment and disposal is a serious challenge for the drainage industry.

The sponsorship fee they gave is equivalent to the tuition fee, which is not a loss at all.

It should be known that compared with other developed countries in Europe, the treatment and disposal of sludge in the UK started relatively late. In the early 1980s, the main disposal methods of sludge in the UK were ocean dumping and landfill.

However, since the 1990s, the UK has done a lot of work in sludge management, and the sludge treatment technology has made great progress, and the level of sludge treatment and disposal has reached the international advanced level.

The UK has its own uniqueness in the establishment of sludge treatment and disposal management system, technical route design, and application of emerging technologies. This is a common existence of patents. I would say that 50,000 is less, at least 200,000. "

Yang Cheng's face darkened, "Get to the point~"

Ian Ayre laughed, "As I said, in the early 1980s, sewage treatment facilities in the UK were public facilities and operated by the government.

At that time, the sludge contained high heavy metals, and the main disposal methods were ocean dumping and landfill.

Into the 1990s, with the increasing number of sewage treatment facilities, sludge production increased dramatically.

At the same time, sewage treatment facilities began to be privatized, calls for banning ocean dumping of sludge continued to grow, and finally ocean dumping of sludge was banned.

At the same time, due to the remarkable effect of source control, the quality of sludge has gradually improved, and the restriction of land use on sludge products has also been reduced.

Therefore, in the late 1990s, land use gradually became the main sludge disposal method in the UK. In order to ensure the safety of sludge land use, the UK prohibited the application of untreated sludge to the land, and the prohibition of directly spreading the sludge on the grass surface. And strictly control the sludge used for vegetable cultivation.

In the 21st century, sludge landfill disposal was abolished in the UK.

With the popularization of modern sewage treatment facilities and the implementation of industrial wastewater pretreatment, the content of heavy metals and harmful substances in sludge has been greatly reduced, and sludge has begun to be regarded as a resource.

Obtaining energy from sludge has been paid more and more attention, especially the anaerobic digestion technology has been widely used in the UK. More than 70% of the sludge is used for land use after anaerobic digestion treatment. When the sludge quality is not good or the land is resourced When utilization is limited, incineration is also one of the main disposal methods. "

Yang Cheng interrupted him, "In other words, sludge treatment is also profitable?"

"That's right, there are actually quite a few similar income points."

"So what do you think is the situation in country Z? Are they going to introduce our technology? Or equipment?"

"No, no, it's just a small amount of money, I mean just invest in it~"

Yang Cheng frowned, "The national conditions are different. Now the sewage treatment in country Z is not privatized, right?"

Ian Ayre said with a smile, "I have done research, and it is true that domestic sewage treatment plants have the attributes of public utilities, and theoretically the construction, operation and maintenance should be funded by the government.

But in fact, no matter because of financial constraints or lack of operating experience, ZF in the early days was always stingy in investing in the construction of new plants or the operating efficiency of the treatment plants in operation was extremely low.

Under such circumstances, a large number of private enterprises began to enter and obtain franchise rights from ZF. The general operation period is 25-30 years. Operation and maintenance, and all these investments and income are recovered during the operation period by regularly collecting treatment fees from ZF. This is the current profit model of country Z sewage treatment plants.

In theory, the profit is around 30%. "

Yang Cheng was taken aback, "So tall?"

"Yeah, I was also surprised, so I can't wait to report to you."

Yang Cheng thought for a moment, "Go on~"

"In short, the sewage treatment projects in country Z are basically divided into three modes: 1. ZF invests, builds and operates itself, and the income is public utility fund income;

2. Franchising mode, social capital purchases the franchise right of the sewage treatment project and obtains the property rights of the sewage treatment plant, and the franchise will be handed over to the ZF implementing agency or the government-designated agency when the franchise expires;

3. PPP mode, among which the more typical one is that social capital constructs sewage treatment projects and implements operations. During this period, user fees are paid, construction investment is recovered and income is obtained.

Our goal is the third, and the second is the next best thing. "

Yang Cheng nodded, "Sounds okay, but none of us have experience in operating in country Z. Do you know the process? It's easy to be tricked if you go in with a black eye."

"I have also researched that the basic process from civil engineering to operation is very simple. ZF will carry out three connections and one leveling to provide the necessary water and electricity for the project;

Obtain the necessary procedures for starting construction such as land certificates and construction permits;

The man-machine material enters the site, the supervisor signs and issues the construction permit, the construction starts, and the construction is implemented. The sewage pipe network is generally constructed by ZF;

Finally, purchase and install sewage treatment equipment, apply for ZF to provide sewage, put it into operation, implement completion acceptance, start operation, and collect treatment fees. The process is very simple. . . "
